The present invention provides a magnetic field generator for MRI in which, by simplifying the component parts of the pole pieces incorporated therein, the magnetic field generator for MRI can be manufactured at a lower cost without detracting from its magnetic characteristics. Specifically, the present invention provides an inclined magnetic field generation coil for use in a magnetic field generator for MRI, the coil comprising a plurality of magnetic field regulating holes (17), an electric conductor in coiled form, and a resin base. Moreover, it also provides a magnetic field generator for MRI comprising a pair of permanent magnets magnetized in the direction of the thickness and opposed to each other with a gap left therebetween, and a pair of pole pieces having a peripheral projection and disposed on the opposed faces of the respective permanent magnets, in order to create a uniform magnet field space between the pole pieces, the magnetic field generator further comprising an inclined magnetic field generator (9) disposed within each of the pole pieces and having a mechanism (17) for regulating the magnetic field nonuniformity of the uniform magnet field space.
